There was, of course, the initial fascination here and elsewhere with the non-traditional Sharks logo and merchandise, which flew off the shelves long before San Jose hit the ice with an actual hockey team in 1991, the year before Ottawa’s launch.
Ottawa’s passing interest in San Jose took a sharp turn on Sept. 13, 2018 when Wilson swung a deal for Senators captain Erik Karlsson , giving up Dylan DeMelo, Chris Tierney, Josh Norris, Rudolfs Balcers and a 2020 first round draft pick, plus a second round pick in 2021 conditional on the Sharks signing Karlsson to a contract extension.
It is no longer a ridiculous question to ask: which pick will be higher, Ottawa’s own pick or the one via San Jose? As for trends, the Sharks have lost six of their past eight while showing a tendency to get blown out of games. In 11 of their 33 games, a full one-third, San Jose has given up five goals or more.
While the Sharks have had their road woes, they have played three more home games than the Senators, who have six more away games in the books then they have at the Canadian Tire Centre . The Senators can expect a lot more home cooking in the months of January and February when they have 18 dates at the CTC.That’s the plan. Coaching changes in Calgary and Toronto have resulted in quick improvements, but both of those teams have a starting goaltender with strong numbers .
